His question caught Junghwa off guard.
His heart nearly spilled from its confinements when he saw the understanding look in Wooyun's eyes. Bright eyes that weren't filled with contempt but tender instead. It made it difficult for the Demon Lord to answer. He was speechless for perhaps the first time in his life.
Suddenly, laughter bubbled in his throat before releasing into the air. The room that was once filled with heavy energy seemed to lighten the minute his laughter filled the room.
Wooyun was tense and trying his best to be careful, but blinked. He then opened his mouth, expression like a deer caught in headlights as he looked at the laughing man.
After everything I've just done, that's the first thing he wishes to ask? What a nauseatingly curious man, the Demon Lord thought.
It was only after a long minute had passed that Junghwa could bring himself to answer Wooyun's question. "It's been a few years now."
Wooyun's eyes widened. "A few years?!"
